Land sale paves way for new €22m courts complex in Tralee
Reading time: 1 minute
A new €22 million courts complex for Tralee will be built on the site of the former Denny bacon factory after Kerry councillors agreed to sell the land to the Courts Service for €160,000.
Kerry County Council yesterday voted by 28-4 with one abstention in favour of the proposal to sell around a fifth of the Island of Geese site for the development, The Kerryman reports.
The development, which has been discussed for a number of years, has won the backing of Kerry Law Society and the local bar association.
The existing Tralee courthouse building on Ashe Street, which dates back to 1834, has been described as “dilapidated” and “not fit for purpose”.
